Manchester’s New Forward Alexis Sanchez Scores his First Goal

Three games in and Manchester United’s new forward Alexis Sanchez scores his first goal for the club against Huddersfield Town.

Manchester was a clear betting apps’ favourite in this match, as Huddersfield is struggling to stay in the Premier League. So, it was surprising that this game wasn’t more exciting.

After a relatively dull first half, Manchester United picked up the pace and took the lead in the 55-minute mark. 13 minutes later, Huddersfield’s defender Michael Hefele tackled Alexis, which got him a penalty kick. Even though the 29-year-old Chilean didn’t score from the spot-kick, he was able to take the ball and put it in the net after a rebound.

After the game, Sanchez received praise for his performance from both the fans and Manchester’s head coach Jose Mourinho. Additionally, fans voted him the Man of the Match.
